"It's been a long time since I rock 'n' rolled"

Wow, It‘s feels like it's been years since I put away the bike's last November but the time has finally come. This weekend is my first race of the 2011 season and the first stop for the Ontario Cup XC race series. Here is hoping all the training I did over the winter pays off. This season I will be racing a XC full series and select DH races here and there more for fun than anything else. Don't get me wrong, I Iove my DH racing but I raced XC for years and I was really starting to miss the hunt of chasing a dude down and making him feel the pain on the hills. I look forward to sharing some good racing stories here on lamacycles.com this year. Stay tuned! Until then you can follow me on twitter @balfaboy. Here are is a pic of the bike I will be racing this year. My 22 pound rocket, Morewood Zula. Wish me luck; I'll post a blog on the outcome of this weekend soon. Cheers!
